If you dont use any lvm, raid and encrypted devices, you can safely turn off all fedora-* services ( Anaconda (F16) finally offers desktop users an easy way to opt out from lvm without being partitioning experts ) #cd /lib/systemd/system #for i in fedora-*; do ln -s /dev/null /etc/systemd/system/$i;done We throw in udev-settle since it gets pulled in by the storage setup #ln -s /dev/null /etc/systemd/system/udev-settle.service If you want speed not eye candy you can disable plymouth #cd /lib/systemd/system #for i in plymouth-*; do ln -s /dev/null /etc/systemd/system/$i;done Then proceeding disabling all the service you dont use. #for i in service1 service2 service3 etc... ; do systemctl disable $i ;done JBG -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
